EVERY artist needs a muse. Da Vinci had Mona Lisa. Terry Richardson has Kate Upton.
The photographer is continuing to stretch the boundaries of art and bikini fabric with his latest performance piece, The Many Talents of Kate Upton.
Richardson's video, compiled from the out-takes of his Upton shoot for GQ, shows the Sports Illustrated model running along a beach ala Pamela Anderson, skateboarding, twirling a hula-hoop, playing basketball, riding a rollercoaster and dancing.
There's even the inevitable wardrobe malfunction, with Upton's bikini top snapping off during a funfair ride.
That little incident didn't go down too well with the funparks management, who the crew to leave.
"We were on that ride where the seat spins while the actual ride is spinning, and I'm wearing a one-piece. And all of a sudden the whole entire top falls off!" Upton said of the incident.
"I'm holding myself, laughing, turning bright red, but a lot of people are watching, so they kicked us out of the Santa Monica pier - it was so embarrassing.
"You wouldn't think that would happen with a one-piece."
But Richardson would have known. That's what makes him an artist and not a man obsessed by breasts.
And that stuff at the end of the video, of Upton emerging from a pool in a wet T-shirt, that's done ironically. We think.
